How to Draw a Ukulele

Step 1.

Start by making two circles then draw a guideline for the neck of the uke, then draw the outline shape for the headstock.

Step 2.

Here is where you will draw the entire shape of the headstock and neck.

Step 3.

Next, draw and color in the tuning pegs, then draw out the tuning keys. From there you will draw the four strings that are attached to each peg.

Step 4.

All you have to do here is draw out the hourglass shape of the Ukulele's body using the guide shapes you made in step one.

Step 5.

Next, draw the trim around the inside of the body, then draw in the sound hole, and the rest of the strings. The strings are held in place by the bridge. Erase your mistakes if you made any and that's it.

How many of you love the song by the Hawaiian singer Israel Kamakawiwo'ole 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' you will love this lesson on the instrument that he uses to sing the song. Here is "how to draw a Ukulele", step by step. These mini guitar like instruments have only four strings, and are often called a Uke. The Uke comes from Hawaii and with its initial design it was supposed to be a replica or interpretation of the machete from Madeira, Portugal. Anyways, this lesson should be pretty simple because you are only making a miniature version of a guitar. I will be back with more drawing fun so stay tuned in people.
